DTI Boosts E-Commerce Trustmark with Fee Discounts and Extended Deadline
The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) has announced a range of fee discounts and extended registration deadlines for the E-Commerce Philippine Trustmark. This initiative aims to boost confidence in online trade and encourage more businesses to participate in the digital economy.
Small businesses with assets between P3 million and P15 million can now enjoy a 50 percent discount on their registration fee, paying only P630 in total. Meanwhile, medium enterprises with assets above P15 million will pay the full fee of P1,130. Micro enterprises with total assets of up to P3 million are required to pay P130 in administrative and documentary fees.
The registration for the E-Commerce Philippine Trustmark remains free for DTI-registered micro enterprises. This initiative seeks to enhance consumer protection standards nationwide, certifying compliant online merchants, e-retailers, and digital platforms to ensure safer transactions. Enterprises can register through the official DTI portal at trustmark.dti.gov.ph.
The registration deadline for the E-Commerce Philippine Trustmark has been extended to Dec. 31, 2025, following the announcement by DTI Secretary Adrian S. Cristobal Jr. The extension aims to provide more time for businesses to register and benefit from the trustmark's certification, which helps build consumer trust in the online marketplace.
